m86k, 05 Apr 2015Nerds prefer speed and power, and they know all workarounds..
And has anyone thought about ... moreWhat is DAS? If you ment SAR then that is a useless metric for anything beyond knowing if a phone is approved or not.
No, disabling FM radio is just for greed, non consumer friendly business and an indication of iPhoneism (same as removing SD-card and having a sealed battery). Fortunately LG, Huawei, Sony, ZTE, Lenovo, etc still provides this so all disgruntled Samsung owners can vote with their wallets. I know I will.

I never said who preferred what or who would have to make what choice.

[deleted post]Z4 is going to have even worse battery life with the SD 810.
Just have a look at the M9.

For some people like me, probably doesn't need sd card, Fm Radio. Cause I never listen to radio, I used to transfer my media file to cloud, so I'm kind of a person like to see my smartphone clean from such thing (I just keep mp3 song). About battery, yes sometimes I really do concern, when my phone getting heated and freeze. But they said, this phone will not having such problem like that. We will see how it goes :)

I'll be the first to admit it. I haven't liked a Samsung design in a loooong time, but the S6 edge is a sharp looking device. They really nailed it.
The removable battery, coupled with Samsung's refusal to build a flagship device with metal and glass was a big part of it.
Now if only they could make the UI more like Sense....;)

Looks very fragile. What kind of cases could you buy for it? I guess you could carry it in a purse. Just not with paying extra for, get the s6 instead

Please benchmark EDGE ' S battery as well. Don't assume it will have the same results as S6 and then repost S6's results. That's sloppy reporting and blatantly untrue. Edge ' s battery is 2% better than S6's so it must show in results.
Also it's smaller (better screen to body ratio) than S6 so you should note that too. So -no- the edge screen is not the only difference, this is the better worked model too (better hardware in smaller package). It's important to note of those things.

There are many devices here that are good to great.
Find some and make a decision for yourself.
If you want to ask about a specific device I may or may not have the knowledge/answer.
Good/great does not mean best.
Over priced does not mean best.
In the case of the S6 yes it is not "cheap" and is the best overall around only bested by the Note with trade offs.

Logic. Many cheaper devices while maybe not the best are good to great.

Anonymous, 04 Apr 2015Yeah, that Samsung mongoose core rumors for the Note 5 peaked my interest. I'll wait late this... moreWell I am more or less confident that the battery life of Note 5 will be very good, cause I am already getting 6-7 hours SOT on my Note 3 running in LP, so I won't be shocked if I get around 9-10 hours SOT. That'd be really good, and this is coming from a person who doesn't give a darn about battery life.

That's some competition killer review.
Anyone liking tech will find this undeniable. Others will just focus on cheap MicroSD, FM radio and other water resistance capacity and it's their right. They aren't real nerds, liking the latest, greatest and most powerful (like buying newest cpu or gfx card each new generation).
G4 is still 24 days away for only an announcement and Z4 MIA until proven otherwise. I think that's a big business mistake from them to let that royal way to Samsung. But Samsung is getting that good comforting tap on their shoulder and that's great for them after so many critics last year.

I will surely buy the Galaxy S6 over Galaxy S6 edge and the reason being :
1.That edge functions are real gimmicks and unnecessary.
2. Though S6 Edge looks better that S6 , it does not justify that Rs 10000 more(Indian rupee).
3. Keeping that edge functions will eat up the battery a lot as suggested by gsmarena as it says:
"Note that these numbers were achieved with Night Clock and other Edge features turned off. Night Clock takes an extra 3% per 12 hours, which has only a small impact on the total endurance. If you enable the other Edge features, the Endurance rating drops to 54 hours since the screen digitizer is active all the time."
